Days of Our Lives fans have been speculating for weeks now which Salem resident killed Nick Fallon. Sami and EJ were the obvious choice seeing a how they actually hired a hit-man to do the job. It was revealed a week later that their hit-man actually was late, and someone got to Nick before he could. Lucas was under the microscope next, having access to Kate’s gun and wanting to protect Will and Sonny. In a shocking turn of events Will actually marched into Salem Police Department and confessed to killing Nick.

DOOL fans were skeptical that Will Horton actually pulled the trigger, and for good reason. According to the June 9th edition of Soap Opera Digest, Will Horton is very much the innocent man we all assumed he was. According to Days Of Our Lives spoilers in the magazine, Gabi Hernandez killed Nick! And, when she learns that Will confessed to a crime he didn’t commit, she rushes to the police station and confesses to being the real killer.

It has been known for months now that Camila Banus, the actress that plays the part of Gabi Hernandez would be exiting the canvas soon. And, what better way to write out her character than to send her off to prison for murder?

The fact that Gabi killed Nick is almost a relief to some fans, we were beginning to think she was insane for taking Nick back. But, it turns out we completely underestimated Hernandez. Banus dished to Soap Opera Digest about why her character killed Nick Fallon. Here’s what she had to say, “Basically, Nick was blackmailing Gabi the entire time since he came back to Salem earlier this year. Gabi was afraid of Nick; she had to make him think that she still loved him. She was fearful of what Nick would do if he realized she didn’t have feelings for him. Her biggest worry was that he would harm Ari.”

So, DOOL fans, are you satisfied with how Nick Fallon’s murder investigation turned out? Did you know all along that it was Gabi Hernandez that killed Nick, or did you think it was a different character? Let us know what you think in the comments below and don’t forget to check CDL tomorrow for more Days of Our Lives spoilers.

I knew from the minute Sonny hid the gun in the closet that Gabi was going to take it and kill Nick with it! And then all signs pointed to her..the diaper bag, not there in one scene, there in the next, with no baby to go with it, how she clung to it when getting the cloth out for Jordan, how she tried to hide behind everyone when Nick stumbled into the square, how she got to the hospital after everyone else…without the diaper bag…because she went to the “ER” first (returning gun to closet more likely!)…how she almost said she had to see if he was really dead after viewing his body in the morgue..and she showed no sadness at all that he was gone.

I also have a feeling she is not going to go to prison, but perhaps to a medical facility for help…I don’t think she will be charged with murder after all the facts come out, because it wasn’t a planned murder at all.
